Byrd University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA ................ Cherokee This essay takes as its case study the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma’s 2007 vote to disenfranchise approximately 2,800 Cherokee Freedmen (African-Cherokee Freedmen descendents of slaves once held by members of the Cherokee Nation) in violation of the treaty the Cherokee Nation signed with the United States in 1866 to end internal the Civil War. Arguing that indigenous sovereignty and political status is colonialism incommensurable with the ‘internal’ to the United States, the essay provides a racialization genealogy of ‘internal colonialism’ in order to track how it has emerged as descriptor within postcolonial theory for indigenous peoples’ relations with the settler United States.

  • Colin Linden – Blow Biography
    Colin Linden – bLOW Biography “Got a coin in my pocket heavy and gold/It don’t own me I need to let it go/Cause having is wanting/Desire can make you weep” – “bLOW” Colin Linden’s tale is the stuff of legend, the kind told in the Coen brothers’ O Brother Where Art Thou or Inside Llewyn Davis, both of which featured his guitar playing on the soundtracks. That film would begin with an 11-year-old meeting his musical idol Howlin’ Wolf at a matinee show in his native Toronto, accompanied by his mom, who took a picture of the two during a nearly two-hour long conversation before the gig, the legendary bluesman idling over coffee and cigarettes. “I’m an old man now, and I won’t be around much longer,” Wolf told him. “It’s up to you to carry it on.” Linden still carries that frayed photograph in his wallet, along with a Sears 5/8” socket wrench in his pocket to play slide guitar. He has taken Wolf’s plea seriously, performing since he was 12 years old, leaving home as a teenager to travel the south at the invitation of Mississippi Sheiks delta blues guitarist Sam Chatmon which took him to Detroit, Chicago, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Memphis and Hollandale, Mississippi, meeting and visiting the sites of his heroes – Brownie McGhee, Muddy Waters, Sippie Wallace, Tampa Red, Blind John Davis, the Rev. Robert Wilkins, Sleepy John Estes and Son House, visiting the landmarks and juke joints, many of which he’s played in during the course of a 45-year career producing and playing blues and roots music.

  • Down on Beale Street
    BLUES CITY CULTURAL CENTER Arts for a Better Way of Life Down on Beale Street Some of the most iconic symbols of American music come to life in DOWN ON BEALE STREET, a lively musical depicting notable musicians and the culture that gave birth to the blues. Man, the lead character, guides an aspiring blues singer through the lives of W.C. Handy, Bessie Smith, B.B. King and other legendary artists who left their historic footprints on Beale Street. Written by Levi Frazier Jr in 1972, DOWN ON BEALE STREET has been presented on numerous stages in Memphis and at the Richard Allen Culture Center in New York. It was first performed in 1973 at LeMoyne-Owen College during the W.C. Handy Festival. In 2016, it was performed at Minglewood Hall for over 2,000 students. Over the years, it has been viewed by over 100,000 people through live performances or public broadcasting. In African-American Theatre: An Historical & Critical Analysis, theatre historian and critic Samuel Hay described DOWN ON BEALE STREET as a musical revue that “highlights the denizens and the good times of such Beale Street spots as the Palace Theatre in Memphis. The significance of all of these musicals-with-messages is that they finally achieve what Dubois was seeking when he asked Cole in 1909 to write protest musical comedies for Broadway.” 1 Lesson Overview and Background Information As a music genre, the blues was originated by African Americans in the Deep South. Rooted in African rhythms, spirituals and field songs, it reflected the hard lives and misery experienced by blacks living in a segregated and disenfranchised society.

  • The Jones Tones Are a Veteran Band of Four Musicians, All with a Distinctive Style and Personality That Blends Into a Powerful Whole
    Davey J and the Jones Tones are a veteran band of four musicians, all with a distinctive style and personality that blends into a powerful whole. As bandleader, Davey J's approach to the blues is all about Furry Lewis (by Reverend Keith A. Gordon, About.com Guide) the shuffle, a style and tempo pioneered in acoustic Delta blues and electric Chicago blues. When the four- Bridging the gap between the early acoustic blues of the Mississippi Delta of the 1920s and the rediscovery piece band gets its groove on, you can hear the foot-tapping acoustic-electric sounds from the era of of so-called "folk" or country blues by white audiences in the '60s, Furry Lewis was both a unique stylist and a rockabilly, Nashville country and western, early rock and roll, and of course, classic Chicago blues. And in throwback to the sound of an earlier era. Equally capable of playing guitar with an original fingerpicked style the midst of the traditional shuffle tempos and rich vocals, Davey J also uses processing tools of the 21st as well as delivering a mean slide-guitar sound, Lewis was a charismatic storyteller and a flamboyant century to add an edge to his acoustic guitar sound. So, as the Jones Tones perform songs that range from showman that performed naturally with skill and humor. the 1930s Delta blues to the blues styles of our time, the band pays tribute to blues traditions as well as Born Walter Lewis in Greenwood, Mississippi in the Delta, the exact year of his birth remains in question, and creating an original new sound.
